When did the weekend almost sneak up on me? I suppose I should get the notes for this weekend's classes done. Doing a gum paste workshop, now with period sugar and building large structured cakes.
Just thinking of you - I was reading through the wedding chronicle of Cleves (1587) and there are a couple of pages dedicated just to the sugarwork at the wedding banquet. If you don't know about it, I can send you the link. It happens to be the wedding of the Herzogin I just got the inventory for of Lobben and seellchen interest.
